1. A method for manufacturing a jewelry item enabling a bezel provided with orifices mounted with a precious or non-precious stone to be held and immobilized on a material such as fishing line thread, wherein the bezel is immobilized on the inside by a swelling at the end of the fishing line thread, thus blocking and immobilizing the bezel.

2. A method according to claim 1, wherein the thread is a fishing line thread.

3. A method according to claim 1, wherein the swelling is carried out through a welding at the end of the thread.

4. Jewel including a bezel provided with orifices, and a thread passing through an orifice, the end of said thread having inside the bezel a swelling allowing the bezel to be immobilized on the thread.

5. Jewel according to claim 4, wherein the bezel is mounted of a stone, e.g. a precious stone.

Descripción

[0001]

The present invention relates to a jewelry manufacturing device enabling all types (shapes and sizes) of bezels mounted with precious (or non-precious) stones to be held and immobilized on a material such as fishing line thread.

[0002]

Usually, the jewel held by a fishing line thread is mounted in a traditional manner in place of a chain which passes inside a ring. This means the bezel (suspended by the ring) is made to slide from right to left on the fishing line thread.

[0003]

The present invention offers a unique way of mounting the fishing line thread on the bezel or bezels of a jewel according to the compositions thereof, immobilizing the bezels and being joined to the fishing line thread. This invention allows all types of jewelry creation (pendants, earrings, bracelets, rings).

[0004]

The device includes a bezel 1 mounted with a precious or non precious stone 4 and comprising a maximum of eight orifices 2 through which, according to the desired jewelry model, up to eight fishing line threads 3 are passed. The principle is to pass the fishing line thread 3 into one of the orifices of the bezel 1, then, using a welding iron, to carry out a spot weld (inside the bezel 1) on the end of the fishing line thread 3 in order to cause a swelling which immobilizes the bezel 1 (and, as a result, the fishing line thread 3). This process then has to be repeated for the desired orifices 2 as many times as necessary according to the model and composition of the jewel.
